The FEM simulation of the Surface Acoustic Wave Delay Line based on the P-matrix model for Sensor Application
Since the last few decades, the researchers are focused on new sensor material and novel design structure with high performances. Today various technologies are available but SAW sensors are preferable because of its characteristics such as low cost, low power, lightweight, rugged, ... Read More
Static & Dynamic Analysis of Modular Cantilever Assembly
Modular Cantilever supports two parallel tensioned cable structure i.e Contact wire, messenger wire and dropper for overhead catenary lines in railways. Its main function is to allow smooth movement of pantograph at desired speed and transfers vertical load, lateral forces and ... Read More
Bagpipe Chanter Vibration Analysis
This study investigates the use of COMSOL Multiphysics® to compare design variations in two different bagpipe chanters. Eigenfrequency analysis of material and geometry variations are simulated and compared to experimental results. The study suggests an increased damping ratio associated ... Read More
Modeling of Oil Spill Collection by Means of Devulcanised Crumb Rubber in COMSOL Multiphysics®.
In current work, diffusion processes of oil spills through a thin layer of porous composite materials based on crumb rubber are investigated. Model setup includes a concept of layer built of crumb rubber particles (and composite constituents) distributed on the solid surface, gradually ... Read More
Acoustic Fluid Relocation for the Separation of Exosomes
The aim of the present work is to explore through the developed numerical model the separation of exosomes from a more complex mixture of particles i.e. red blood cells and white blood cells, through combined acoustofluidics and fluid relocation in a bulk acoustic wave microfluidic ... Read More
Rubber In-Ear Loudspeaker Resonator
The effects of an auxiliary resonating chamber in an in-ear headphone were simulated using COMSOL Multiphysics®. The auxiliary resonator consists of a rubber attachment that can be added to an in-ear loudspeaker. The purpose of the resonator is to increase the low frequency performance ... Read More
In-Air Fault Detection for Medical Ultrasonic Transducers
Ultrasound transducers are regularly used in medical clinics but their performance is known to deteriorate over time. Causes of this image quality degradation can include delamination between layers, physical breakage of components, short circuits and weakening crystals. Regular ... Read More
Measurement and FEA Simulation of the Electro-mechanical and Acoustic Response of an Of-the-shelf Open-type Piezoelectric Flexural Ultrasonic Transducer
High power, air-coupled ultrasound has gained significant interest from the research community due to the rise in applications such as non-contact particle manipulation, haptic feedback, and sound steering.

Mechanical and Thermal Effects of Focused Ultrasound on a Biological Tissue using COMSOL Multiphysics®, Three Different Approaches
Focused ultrasounds are used in many medical applications as a treatment: it is important to evaluate the induced effects of such a procedure to achieve a high accuracy while keeping the untargeted surrounding areas safe. In the present paper, COMSOL Multiphysics®, a simulation software ... Read More
Randomization to Tackle Mid-Frequency Acoustic Tones in Wind Turbines
Wind turbine towers can often become modal if matched closely in frequency with the excitation associated with rotating components in the drive train, such as gearboxes and generators. When these conditions are met, the modal response is greatly amplified due to the very low structural ... Read More
